<p>On 26th May 2012 I will celebrate my 50th Birthday thousands of miles away from family and friends, trying to make a real difference by helping to fundraise for St Barnabas House in Worthing, West Sussex. St Barnabas House is an independant charitable hospice providing specialist palliative care for patients, as well as vitally important support for their families.</p> <p>So from 18th to 27th May 2012, I will be taking part in a group trek conquering the famous Inca Trail to Machu Picchu, up to 4200m high in the Andes Mountains of Peru. We aim to raise &pound;56,000 which pays for a whole month of care in four patient rooms at St Barnabas House.</p> <p>Huge thanks to Rob for encouraging me to take on this challenge and for his wonderful support and also to Jon, Amy, Ella and Lucy - love you all!</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
